Visit Millikin University

Campus Visit Days include sessions about academic and athletic programs. You'll also have a chance to speak with our admission and financial aid staff. If you can’t attend a Visit Day, we’ll customize an individual visit just for you. It's the next best thing to visiting campus in person.

Did you know that students learn more when they are involved in both academic and social aspects of the collegiate experience? An involved student is one who devotes considerable energy to academics, spends much time on campus, participates actively in student organizations/activities, and interacts often with faculty.

Check out the current directory listing of our 110 Student Organizations at Millikin and many that address cultural and/or global issues and get involved in our International Student Organization or one of our organizations.
